Over 50 York fans have been given a banning order, allegedly not by the club but my the stadium owner, York SMC. It's on the back of the fans celebrating a 96th minute winner recently, with the advertising boards being knocked down by celebrating fans. The club had to put out a statement to say they disagree with...

I work for a film production company and we’ve just made a scripted comedy pilot called Life In Non League, set around a fictional non-league football club and the volunteers, committee members and regular matchday characters who keep it running.

It’s shot in a mockumentary style and is very much based on real experiences at that level — budget arguments, club politics, stewards taking things too seriously, people doing five different jobs on a Saturday, all the...

Hi everyone,

I hope it’s okay to share this here.

I’m posting about Carol, a genuinely lovely woman connected to the Bristol City community. She’s been a voluntary steward at the club – one of those people who just gives her time to help others without ever asking for anything in return.

I only know Carol and her family through my dad and my 90-year-old granny, but they’ve always spoken so warmly about her. She even once turned up at Ashton...

Please help bring Carol home ❤️]]> Wed, 25 Mar 2026 08:08:42 +0000 https://bantamtalk.com/threads/goalkeepers-%E2%80%98running-the-clock-down%E2%80%99.9883/ https://bantamtalk.com/threads/goalkeepers-%E2%80%98running-the-clock-down%E2%80%99.9883/ invalid@example.com (JonButterfield) JonButterfield 15 Mon, 09 Mar 2026 14:24:38 +0000 https://bantamtalk.com/threads/premier-league-pitches.9844/ https://bantamtalk.com/threads/premier-league-pitches.9844/ invalid@example.com (Kevin1954) Kevin1954 ]]> 1 Sun, 08 Mar 2026 18:06:42 +0000 https://bantamtalk.com/threads/fa-cup-var.9843/ https://bantamtalk.com/threads/fa-cup-var.9843/ invalid@example.com (bantam65) bantam65 I thought if it wasn't available in any game it wouldn't be used in others.
Obviously Port Vale and Mansfield haven't the facilities etc for it to be used so therefore shouldn't be available for the others.]]> 2 Sat, 07 Mar 2026 18:25:38 +0000 https://bantamtalk.com/threads/efl-proposed-promotion-relegation-changes.9411/ https://bantamtalk.com/threads/efl-proposed-promotion-relegation-changes.9411/ invalid@example.com (Stafford Bantam) Stafford Bantam
The proposal for the Championship is:

• 1st and 2nd promoted, as now.
• A new play off elimination round involving 5th v 8th and 6th v 7th (one leg only).
• Play off semi finals, over two legs, with 3rd and 4th taking on the respective winners of the elimination round.
• Final as now.

If the Championship clubs agree to this, it...
